The direct-to-home service was providing [[free-to-air]] and [[Nagravision]]-encrypted channels. The pay TV service was shut down at the end of 2013, but the free-to-air channels remain available on Galaxy 19. The brand World TV and the associated web site are now terminated.
In North America, the satellite broadcasts dozens of Arabic and Asian channels.
 
In Europe, the GlobeCast World TV service was officially launched in June 2007, but was discontinued in 2008. It was received via [[Intelsat]] 905 satellite and was providing a bouquet of ethnic TV channels from India and Pakistan.
 
Also, in 2012 and 2013, [[Globecast]] operated MyGlobeTV, a set of Internet-delivered pay-TV ethnic packages to connected devices: Netgem Internet set-top-box, iOS and Android devices.
It is the North American satellite television service that carries [[Al Jazeera English]].
